An entire battalion of military headstones at Placerville Union Cemetery, many dating back to the Civil War, are lichen-encrusted to the point of illegibility, leaning precariously, or both.
Please join us on Saturday, June 22 for the second of several “Headstone parties” this summer to clean and straighten these monuments to 
those who have served. Headstone cleaning is satisfying and important work.
Details: Supervisors will be on hand to show volunteers VA-approved, safe, headstone cleaning techniques. Cleaning supplies will be provided. All ages are welcome. You must register in advance.
Wear: sun hat, work clothes and sturdy shoes. Terrain is irregular.
